What's wrong with Joaquin Phoenix? The Return (what happened?)

What's wrong with Joaquin Phoenix? The Return (what happened?)

We’ve all speculated in the past that Mr. Phoenix was putting on an act when he claimed he was going into a music career. And, he was making the rounds acting like a complete drugged out fool. Yet, it all seemed staged to me.

Then, he just completely disappeared from everything. There were no rap songs and no more appearances. Come to find out, Joaquin has been seen at an Oscar party clean-shaven and acting normal. Then someone reported that Joaquin Phoenix is looking into getting back into acting again.

From Roger Friedman's page, ((Joaquin never looked better–clear eyed and clean shaven, a 180 degree turnaround from his digression into rapping and riffing last year on talk shows.

He told me with certainty that he will likely return to acting now after a relatively short break. He’s just hoping to read some good scripts. “Why don’t you write one?” he asked facetiously.))

Wait, didn't he say he was done with acting last year? It seems more and more likely the whole thing was an act. So, why did he disappear and what happened to that Casey Affleck Joaquin Phoenix Documentary? I mean it is still listed on imdb.com. Even if it was an act, I think his turn toward the music career kind of hurt his future acting career, because he has nothing on his page since 2008. It should also be mentioned that director James Gray was pissed off about his little act too.

So, I guess the whole thing kind of fizzled out and he's back to acting.

Will we get to see the documentary?
